Healing Touch Acrylic Oil Figurative Painting

A blindfolded visage emerges from a deep charcoal void, rendered with a tender chiaroscuro that makes the skin feel both human and sculptural, as if consciousness itself were being carved from darkness. Around it, a swarm of disembodied hands rises and presses inward—some pleading, some shielding, some grasping—forming a claustrophobic halo that turns touch into both comfort and coercion. The scattered, pixel-like marks drifting across the surface read as a digital static or moral snowfall, suggesting how perception is interrupted by noise, surveillance, or memory’s erosion. In this suspended threshold between intimacy and intrusion, the work meditates on what it means to “see” when vision is denied: the self becomes a contested territory mapped by many unseen demands.
